How are these two rounds different ballistically? 9x23 seems to have faded quickly from popularity; is it less potent than 357 sig?

What handguns are chambered for this round? I know Glock makes them. Colt Delta Elite is another choice, though I assume this is out of production. And, from looking at ballistic tables, it would seem 10 mm and 40 S&W are fairly similar... I have always thought 10 mm is a more powerful...

Does anyone have experience with this firearm? How does the squeeze cocker work exactly? I mean after it is sqeezed, is the trigger let off single action? If so, how much is the trigger pull? And why is the MSRP on this firearm so much more than other HK products? Opinions please...

Which of the following 2 rounds would you rather defend yourself with: 230 g 45ACP FMJ -or- 125 g 357 mag FMJ For purposes of this discussion, let us assume neither bullet will deform, expand, or fragment...

Dont these 2 rounds push 125 g bullets to about the same velocity? Whats the difference?

Ok, so I am ready to endure the inevitable assault that is about to occur, but here goes... In several posts before, proponents of 9mm, 357 sig, etc have said that the extra energy of these rounds compared to 45 ACP makes them better stoppers... For high powered rifles, I agree energy is the...

I saw a real nice looking Colt XSE at the gunshow today in Atlanta. It was new, and the dealer was asking $899, plus tax. I got him down to $850, plus tax. I decided that was still a little steep, and told him I would think about it. So I take in the rest of the show, and end up going back to...

Here is a weird hypothetical situation to ponder: You are about to be shot, nothing you can do to stop it. You dont know what part of you is going to be hit, could be your head, chest, butt, foot, whatever. You, obviously, do not want to die. Rank these rounds in terms of what you would...

One of the gun rags included 40 S&W in with "big bore" cartridges recently. Is it just me or is that kind of a stretch? I have nothing really against this round, but wouldnt consider it "big bore".

How much is a Colt XS gonna set me back? How about and XSE?

Any body going to the Eastman show this weekend at the North Atlanta Trade Center??? Gonna be a good one, methinks.

What is the maximum 45 colt load (bullet weight and velocity, I mean) that I could safely put through a new SAA?

Why is the search function disabled???

Have any of you ever bought a gun on an internet auction? I am a little wary about it. How can you be sure you will get your gun and not just some stranger a bunch of money? your thoughts are greatly appreciated.

I guess this may fall into the stupid question category: How do I tell if my 625 is a round or square butt?

What do you guys think about the Colt Mustang and Pocketlite? Seems like it might be a good backup gun for 1911 folks. Would you carry one of these in condition 1?

Has anyone got the new Henry 22 yellowboy rifle I have seen advertised? Is it any good. Looks pretty cool to me.

Anybody ever seen or shot one of the new Wilson AR 15 style rifles? are they any good???

A consistent trigger pull. I think any gun that works DA/SA is inately more difficult to shoot well. It would also seem to me that transitioning between the first DA shot and subsequent SA shots would be quite difficult under a stressfull situation (ie, if someone was attacking you). When i...
